[Popcon-developers] Bug#259004: popularity-contest: Relate popcon to the linux counter?

[Martin Quinson]

Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.22
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

the package templates could maybe also propose to the user to register to
the linux user counter (counter.li.org) or use their existing registration.

In fact I'm not completely convinced it's a good idea, but the
update-machine script available by counter.li.org seems a bit small for
justifying the creation of a new package, doesnt it?

The sure thing is that it would be cool if the next debian distribution
could propose to user to register into this system at installation time...

Thanks for your time, Mt.
